I'm literally not disagreeing that Doom was industry-changing. I said it multiple times. You seem to be just reaching through any hole to continue to argue about something we both agree on.
Yes. I said:
So I said 1) doom had a huge impact on the industry because it, (the industry) was small and they started licensing out their engine. Now that the industry is bigger it's not really a good comparison to any game.
You then said:
I literally said the opposite and said Doom had a huge impact on the industry.
So I made that clear:
This is absolutely true and you agreed by saying:
We agree Doom was industry-changing, but Doom is currently not as directly influential to the industry today. We both agree and you state that's somehow a point of disagreement.
So I fail to see why you are pulling at this small nitpick part that we both agree on when I've made a slew of points in the comments above that you ignored. If you want to engage, try to do so in terms of having a conversation rather than just trying to point out something you feel is wrong. Take into context the things I've said, don't just focus on one little thing you think you disagree with. If you actually disagree with what I said, please be clear in how you think I've said something because it might just be a point of clarity rather than actual disagreement.
When you said we wouldn't have the games that influence the industry today. The argument only works as a point if you don't think the argument that doom directly influences the industry today. Otherwise you would have argued that which is a stronger point.
Fair enough, I see your point.
